Read what our students have to say:

“The Academy’s online program was important to me because it would have been impossible for me to continue in my job as an associate head basketball coach at the college level and attend traditional college classes at the same time. The Academy’s program allowed me to study on my own schedule and complete my classes at my own pace.” – Chuck, Bachelor of Sports Science degree alumnus

“The faculty at the Academy are fantastic and are very knowledgeable about sports. Whenever I have a question they are always quick to get back in touch with me. The faculty are there when you need them and give you one-on-one personal attention.” – Jillian, Master of Sport Science degree student

“My goal is to have a career in sport. The mentorship program at the United States Sports Academy provides students with the opportunity to network with sports professionals as well as gain hands-on training. Many students have gone on to work with their mentors after graduation.” – Taffy, Doctor of Education in Sports Management degree student
